Gmail has always had a limit on free storage quota. At first it was 1GB, then it was 5GB, currently it is 15GB. So I'm curious how much data we are talking about and whether you have considered the $2/mo 100GB plan.

Personally, I am paying $17/mo for YouTube Premium that gives everyone in my family ad-free YouTube, unlimited music, and 100GB of storage for our gmail and other files. It seems like a pretty square deal considering.

I think the Google Apps for a work aka gmail for your own domain has recently put a limit that "free" legacy accounts can't buy storage. The regular @gmail, and paid domain gmail users can still buy any storage plan.

According to the email reminders that Google keeps sending me, they're flicking that switch in 7 days and moving everyone to "Google Workspace Business Starter" or oblivion. I thought it was called G Suite, I can't keep up.

Not everybody, I think only if one has themselves not opted for any new option (free non business use OR paid business use). I have 5-6 personal domains, for family, maybe a user or two on each. I have opted rightfully non business use, and I am not getting any reminders.
